Author Description

Established in 1896 with the coming of the Ottawa, Arnprior and Parry Sound Railway, Rock Lake Station was for over forty years a bustling centre for Algonquin park tourism and commerce. Unfortunately the demise of the railway in the late 1940's sealed its fate and today there are no signs of its existence, unless one knows where and how to look,. This book is the third in a series of narratives designed to bring to life the human history of Algonquin Park with specific focus on over 100 years of an active and vibrant Rock Lake and Whitefish Lake community.
